We need to fix this.
Start up your Mac in single-user mode or verbose mode - Apple Support and run
fsck_apfs -s -o -y /dev/rdisk1

It appears like this
Hey Loner! yes I have the 2019 iMac.
This post is only to tell you that even though "fsck_apfs -s -o -y /dev/rdisk2" threw an error, it appears it did the trick. After that I tried the Bootcamp procedure again and it worked!
Now I am running Windows 10 with no problems at all. You are a life saver!! Thanks!
Run
fsck_apfs -s -o -y /dev/rdisk2
Hi Loner,
I have run the SMC and NVRAM Reset already and I dont have any external storage connected to my computer
The name of W10 ISO is: Win10_1903_V1_English_x64
Thanks!
Post the output of
sudo fsck_apfs -n -l /dev/rdisk2
Loner, I tried to do that but got the following error:
error: container /dev/rdisk3 is mounted with write access
Check if disk3 is the APFS container by running diskutil list.
when I run that, it gives me the next error:
error: Device does not contain a valid AFPS container.
hehehe... thanks a lot for the quick responses by the way
Can you confirm that your iMac is 2019?
Also, can you reboot and hold Command+S? Does it give you a black console with white letters?
Excellent!
